An erotically charged collision between two of the cultural stars of the 20th century, which won the special prize of the 1997 Prix Italia. Dominic Muldowney 's passionate score and David Zane Mairowitz 's richly imaginative text throw together American dancer Isadora Duncan and FT Marinetti, the founder of Italian futurism, in a carnal dance around a table laden with futurist cooking and Fascism. With sound design by Ian Dearden. and starring Maria Friedman as Isadora and Alan
Belk as Marinetti.
